Montana Man Posts Graphic Video After Being Attacked By A Grizzly Bear

Trending News: Guy Films Himself After Getting Brutally Mauled By A Bear

Why Is This Important?

Because he had the cajones to film a video after being attacked by a bear — twice.

Long Story Short

Todd Orr out hiking when he was suddenly charged at and mauled by a grizzly bear. After a couple minutes, the bear stopped, only to return and rip him up some more. Covered in blood and with no use of his left arm, Orr incredibly lived to tell the tale and posted a video showing off his wounds before being treated in a hospital.

Long Story

Thought you were rattled about bears after seeing The Revenant? Check this guy out.

Todd Orr took an early morning hike in Montana's Madison Valley to scout for elk when he spotted a bear and its cubs. Tragically, the bear spotted him too.

The aftermath of the brutal mauling was documented by a calm and collected — yet bloodied — Orr in a Facebook video.

"I think my arm's broke but my legs are good, internal organs are good, eyes are good," he says. "I just walked out three miles and now I've got to go to the hospital."

Warning: don't watch if you're squeamish.

The story of what happened after the bear spotted him was recounted in a Facebook post.

Here's what happened. After the bear spotted Orr, it charged at him from 80 feet out — its momentum blowing past the hiker's bear spray, which he shot from 25 feet away.

(A spokesperson for Montana Fish, Wildlife and Parks told CBC News that this is the first instance he'd heard of "where a bear actually ran through bear spray.")

Orr went down, protecting his neck with his arms, as the bear dug in.

"The force of each bite was like a sledge hammer with teeth," he wrote. "She would stop for a few seconds and then bite again. Over and over."

After a couple minutes of what Orr says felt like an "eternity," the bear ran away.

Relieved and shocked that he was left alive, Orr started to make his way back to the trail, but five to 10 minute later the bear was back.

"She slammed down on top of me and bit my shoulder and arms again," he wrote. "One bite on my forearm went through to the bone and I heard a crunch. My hand instantly went numb and wrist and fingers were limp and unusable. The sudden pain made me flinch and gasp for breath."

Orr tried to lay still as the bear chomped at his shoulder, upper back and head where he felt a gash open above his ear. Orr wrote that he expected the bear to take a bite out of his neck that would end his life, but the bear suddenly stopped and stood over him before running away.

Orr gathered himself and started jogging to safety — that's when he took the video.

After getting to cell service, he called his girlfriend "to ask how her morning was going, before freaking her out and asking her to bring me a change of clean clothes to the hospital."

Orr then called 911 and arrived at the hospital where he was welcomed by the doctor and nurses. Orr was treated for eight hours, with stitches being applied to his arm, shoulder and side of his head where the bear took out a five inch gash.

"Not my best day, but I'm alive," he wrote.

What an unbelievable story and what an extremely lucky guy.
